    NPP members who are mostly sons and daughters of vicious tribalist, angry terrorist, bitter, and extreme litigants simply cannot tolerate differring views of each other let alone those who do not belong to their inner cycle.

    By a stupid stretch of the imagination,ahoofe was able to causally link two unrelated events to make a stupid point.If the honourable Kofi Annan should read his piece,he will end up wondering whether ahoofe is kidding or seri ...

    Yeah,you Mr Ahhofe agree with Annan but......you fail to conclude that your "but" is largely guided by tribal sympathies more than principles.

  • Joe Afrifa 10 years ago

    Okoampa-Ahoofe, you sounded like an evil animal who has no iota of sense in the bush. You lack logical reasoning. You are always looking for an opportunity to display your stupidity.

  • Ada Boy 10 years ago

    Another heartless rant by an imbecile who cant help himself at a time when the whole world is mourning the tragic loss of innocent lives.Mr Annan didnt go down so low as Ahoofe, the tribal demagogue preying on the the good, p ...

    You are right. Ahoofe should come home - to Kyebi or Asiakwa or Kade and start a community college.

    I am not a fan of Okoampa Ahoofe but I know for a fact that he is indeed an instructor of English at Nassau Community College. He is not making that up.

    Very aptly put.'Couldn't agree with you more.This article is very revealing of the writer's character.He's a weirdo,least to be said.

  • Ada Boy 10 years ago

    One Ghanaian saying stands supreme today,"the educated fool" and who more represents that the oterich K Ahoofe?

  • Kwadwo Amosa 10 years ago

    I am all in, Kwame. Until we come to terms with our past, we cannot blame our present. However, let Kofi be Kofi. He is a carrier diplomat. Diplomats just do say what people want to hear, without causing harm.

  • KOJO HOHO 10 years ago

    Kofi Annan must take note that what John Rawlings did with the help of Kofi Awoonor in December 1983 was more disastrous than what Al-Shabab did in Kenya last week. Kofi Awoonor was therefore never a hero!
